CONNECTINGTHE POWER

JIMMY SERIES HYDRAULIC REBAR BENDERS — APPLYING POWER

CONNECTINGTHE POWER

1.The electric-hydraulic pump requires 115 VAC, 60 Hz power. Applying power to the pump that is not speci- fied will cause severe damage to the pump's electric motor. Always read the electrical data plate before applying power to the pump.

2.The power plug on the pump is a 3-prong grounded type plug. ALWAYS connect this plug to a 3-prong grounded receptacle. NEVER plug this device into a 2-prong type receptacle.This will defeat the ground circuit.The use of a 3-prong to 2-prong adapter is strictly prohibited.

3.Connect the pump's AC power cord to a 115 VAC wall receptacle or portable generator (Figure 7) that is pro- tected by a 20 amp circuit breaker. For best results connect the power cord to a GFCI receptacle.

Since distance can affect voltage drop when using an extension cord,

NOTE ALWAYS make certain that the proper extension cord has been se- lected for the job. See Table 4.

4.Connectthehand-heldremotecontrolcabletothe power input receptacle on the power unit

5.To apply power to the electric-hydraulic pump, place the ON/OFF toggle switch (Figure 7) to the ON position (up).
